RIDICULOUS! | Eminem - "MY DARLING" | Reaction

[@Craft_864]

I get chills everytime this song gets to the point where Em/The Demon are layering vocals as they merge into one. This song is goated

It’s annoys me that people let the accents on this album affect their views on it, when there’s genius things like this on it!

[@MyWORDisntGospel]

One of my favorite parts of this song, is the chainsaw, attempting to start* up the entire time as part of the beat and then at the end when it actually does rev up…sick. One of my favorite Eminem tracks.

[@Colruth]

On stage back in the day Em would have a character in overalls and a jason's mask and a chainsaw. The way I see it the chainsaw in the song is Shady trying to come back and in the end... he wins. It goes with how both voices merges in the end.

[@MyWORDisntGospel]

@@Colruth I agree with that

[@DublinMark]

​@Colruth all the years I'm.listening to this song I never twigged the chainsaw trying to be started up😊

[@jonanice]

I love how that at the end it’s like Em I screaming as he turns into full “Slim mode” which would be the iconic chainsaw shady act

[@neworldfool9625]

[@ivanaleksandartsanev1693]

That would be like a magician showing how he does his tricks. A lot of the great parts about Em's lyricism is about the different interpretations you can have.

[@jazmynking1879]

Em is not talking to the devil he's talking to his addiction he was clean and his addiction is trying to get him to remember every bad thing he ever went through so he can use again

[@crashthecat]

I think it'd take 20 hours straight for him to explain what happens in 5 seconds in his brain

[@aprilboxton2284]

That would be GOATED..

[@pUrpLEsnake325]

What I love about this song is it's a quadruple entendre. The other voice is four things, it's Shady, The Devil, His Addiction, and Himself. In Deja Vu he talks about his drug use and he has a similar conversation with that deep voiced figure and it goes like this "Whats a beer? That's The Devil in my ear I've been sober a fuckin year and that fucker still talks to me he's all I can fuckin hear" "Marshall come on let's watch the game it's the Cowboys and Bucanners!" His addiction IS The Devil and vice versa, and in this song and a few of his others he says Slim Shady is just a persona that's a result of his drug use "But Dre all Shady is is a bottle of hair bleach and vodka", again, his addiction, which is also the devil, so Shady is also The Devil, and then when his voice merges with the deep voice in this song, it's an acknowledgement that this voice in his head, Shady, the Devil, it's all just him. He is his own worst enemy, and he's fighting that devil inside him for his freedom, and it's trying to take him back, the drugs are trying to take him back, and he's trying to fight it, but how do you win a fight against yourself? That's why he fights the mirror, because he's battling himself, with his own personal devil.

My Darling is one of the BEST examples of "double meaning" through an entire song I have ever heard. Because you can never be sure if it is the "drug addiction talking" or the "Slim Shady persona" talking.

It’s so funny you said that cuz I’ve always described Relapse like a movie. It’s basically Em’s journal of addiction - how he became an addict, a day in the life of an addict, the crazy thoughts and dreams he would have, etc

[@MyWORDisntGospel]

Man, I’ve always told everyone that you should look at Relapse as a graphic novel. I agree with you 100%

[@RyanT586-2]

This has to be some of Eminems best production. This whole album sounds incredible.

[@sparda9060]

The entire song Em was trying to start the chainsaw. the entire time it didn't start until the end when he merged back with Slim Shady. Thats when the chainsaw starts, which represents destructive nature of what Slim Shady brings into his life and his music. The albums after Relapse you can tell Slim Shady was coming back slowly. It wasn't until Music To Be Murdered By when Em literally dug up Slim Shady to get back into form. That whole album was some really dark Slim Shady Esqe type of joint.

[@raymondjames9283]

One of Em’s most underrated songs. My favorite song on Relapse and I feel it should’ve been on CC2. Very creative and dark song

[@demon_3x]

There is way more layers to this one than meets the eye. Arguably one of his top songs in my opinion, in terms of artistic approach and overall writing and atmospheres.

[@epprez]

I heard this so many times and still got chills watching yall react to it

[@akakeanu]

This was supposed to be the first song on Relapse instead of 3am. Honestly, I will never understand why he pulled it because it fits so perfectly into the story. The opening Dr West skit introduces the "devil" as a character in a dream and ends with his alarm going off. My Darling then opens with him yawning as if he had just woken up. Then, after giving in to the "devil" character, Marshall turns into Slim and goes on his rampage in 3am. That sets the tone for the remainder of the album. Personally, I like to view the "devil" character as a representation of his internal struggle with drug addiction. And him giving into that devil is basically him having his "Relapse" which results in the events of this album unfolding.

I know that we are in a historic time because nobody else is able to do what Eminem is doing the way he is doing it. I enjoy listening to Eminem also and I feel like listening to Eminem music is like looking at and appreciating the art of Michaelangelo.

The devil/demonic possession of Em’s soul because he sold it to become famous makes the most sense as an interpretation thanks to the ‘praying to God’ line.

[@JaimeJDoesStuff]

One of my fav Em tracks ever. He's not obsessed with himself, its about "shady", who made him famous, SHADY is who he sees in the mirror, but aside from the fame shady also lead to addiction,, the loss of his family, all kinds of problems. Shady is temting him to come back and regain "his shady level" of status and fame. ALSO the "123, 123, 123" part happens exactly at 1:23 in the song. CRAZY

Definitely one of my favorite reaction video y'all have done. Also to one of my favorite Eminem songs. Y'all did this perfectly. From my understanding, this song was made about his drug addiction which is "the devil" Slim shady is a product of his drug addiction. Also, I REALLY want y'all to react to "legacy" by Eminem. He rhymes the whole song off of the last word in his opening bar. Check it out. I can't wait to see it. 👌👌👌👌

ALSO TO ADD, I tried looking through your "playlists" on this channel. I saw your Eminem reactions playlist only had like 7 songs in it, even though I've watched more than 7 of your Eminem reaction videos lol. I'd also love to hear where you placed that "drunk drivers" song. I know you're a rapper but the channel has so many videos that it's kind of cluttered.

The thing that I’m sure was the toughest thing imaginable was to not relapse on the same drugs he was using during the first 3 albums. When everyone is telling you that you aren’t what you were. Would have been so easy to slip back into the cycle. And it must have been so tempting.

[@cliffordsmith8230]

Once again, u did another great reaction to EM. Outside of u and Knox Hill, there r none better when it comes to breaking down the essence of what EM is, the GGG.O.A.T. I've always said EM lives, breathes and would probably die for hip hop and it's really sad that so many people hate on him for it because of the obvious. The guy literally studied hip hop and read the dictionary to get where he's at, he worked his ass off. As they say it takes I think 1000 hrs to get good at something, he's put it 166,264,800 hrs since he's been born, so what has that made him?

Relapse is fire....this song is another genius track/concept. This kind of shit is what makes Em the best.

[@abesanti685]

I love how he uses cryptologic when he writes. You can tell that he studies all forms of writing by using cryptography in his songs. Cryptography for those who aren't aware of what it means, it's message coding. So, with his knowledge of lyricism, it's just one of many reasons why he's thought to be one of the greatest if not THE greatest lyricist ever.

[@bulldoggaming8870]

I have chills watching this he is the goat please do all of this album relapse 💯🙏🙏🙏🙏 love you guys 👏

[@FiryaFYI]

"That's the devil in my ear, I've been sober a fuckin' year And that fucker still talks to me, he's all I can fuckin' hear" - deja vu. Eminem is refering to his addiction as the Devil. And how its contsantly creeping out on him. And at the end of the song, he loses. So the chainsaw revvs up and he begins to kill again.

[@impackmusiq5236]

The song has multiple meaning bruh not just the addiction one

[@djoctavio1234]

​@@impackmusiq5236the album I'd called relapse pretty sure addiction and shady is the point

[@lukethegamer1308]

So this songs confuses a lot of people and i will explain this song is the song of Old slim shady vesus the new slim shady as eminem had to rebrand slim shady as he coudnt do the old character of slim shady because as Em said "But dre all shady is is a bottle of hair bleach and vodka" and he is right. Slim shady was just the character Em made when he was high and drunk off his ass. but after his OD in 08 he couldnt be on Alchohol or drugs so he had to rebrand him and this was Em's way of doing it.

[@If6turnsouttobe9]

I got 1000 things I wanna say about the numbers, the beat,, the scheme, the chainsaw, the duality part of it, but id just start babbling, but when you guys cut it and she said " it's like dancing" I thought " dude quit taking my thoughts" I can't count any sort of layered or algorithmic beat from it, and I'm a drummer, I can play in weird signatures, an overall 5/4 while playing triplets, switching to maybe a 4/4 every other, it gets to the point I can't do the math in my head quick enough to count numbers as I play , so I sing it to myself with little scat syllables, most people do I think, like a bop itty bip pow bip pow thing, but i was walking down the sidewalk as you guys were on and realized his rhymes was affecting how I walked, almost making me walk and dance, i couldn't count what he or i was doing but felt it, then i was counting the joints in my body trying to figure it out. I dunno, Em clearly stays way out front in thinking, I doubt you could sit listen over and over and ever catch up with all the parts he uses to make a song different, it makes me wonder sometimes if he's really so intelligent that he incorporates things into his songs that I can associate to the oddest things, such as how many stones are in the great pyramids, turning algorithmic number patterns into binary numbers, charting them , stacking the charts, and then writing out the binary number in the newly created vertical columns, reversing those back and making new charts, and at the end converting all the binaries into words and phrases, patterns, or if he just does some cool stuff and the rest I attach to it because I'm a flake, or then, maybe he meant that, figures were all a little flakey, who knows,? I know, i sound like a nut, but, whether i am or not , some of my favorite musicians, ones that can control my laughter or tears never made me dig into so much of my own strange thoughts, and to think he does it with a style that many greats did and do still say isnt real music ( rap, electronic, tech music i mean ) what im getting at i guess is when you say " This is MUSIC." I get that 1000% just judging from the mess I just typed, imagine how hard it'd be to shut me up and make sense of my mess of thoughts if we were in the same room and heard this for the first time . These are the things my dad used to tell me to quit talking about because it made people leery of me, they thought I was either a blathering idiot or an evil genius. I think they're wrong either way. I've just always been the guy that asked why? Until my mom or teacher or boss was so sick of me they just said here take some money and go away before I do something ! Lol

This is actually a continuation of his alter ego slim shady who he introduced to the world back in 1998 on his EP, the one that grabbed Dre's attention. Same devil voice and conversation but the original was short introduction, this feels like he took his initial teaser track and turned it into fully developed piece of art. If you've never heard his Slim Shady EP, do yourself a favor and track it down. I actually like it better than his debut album even though there's a lot of overlap

[@howlando6989]

@shawn644 Hmm, my take has always been Demon + Eminem = Slim Shady, from the Demon telling him to look in the mirror etc. My Darling just did a better job at telling the whole story and actually hearing them merge together.

[@matheushenriquemartins5511]

​@shawn644exactly. "Isn't that us on that poster?" Definitely Slim Shady right there

[@howlando6989]

@shawn644 Yes he added double entendre meaning here where demon is metaphor for his drug demons. I mostly just wanted to make the point that the voice and concept was actually invented 10 years earlier which a lot of people probably didn't know including Flawd/Meaux, and that EP is awesome. Regardless the demon being the part of him that turns him into shady I think is pretty clear, he even re-iterated that point in Fall.

Many people are saying it's drug addiction which isn't the case. The theme is when he was poor he begged God for help but it actually did a deal with Devil that created Shady in him. He got fame and money but also drug addiction which is the price you pay. But now he is Marshall and have nothing to do with Shady but Devil is back who wants to Eliminate Marshall and create Shady permanently.

Em deserves to be the best, he works and thinks harder than anyone to be recognized even if it means eating a dictionary. At that time as a white rapper from the trailer park, the pressure is too much but gladly there's proof who still believes in him no matter what. His story was too perfect to be true, but hate always came to him so he had to stay humble. Crazy!

Joe Budden - “Pray for me” was another that was a back and forth dialogue that was fire

[@Mavtastic54]

Literally at the 16th second she swears. Dodged it by a second. Literally. Thats Wild

[@JoshieMadhatt]

I think it's a dual concept. Shady is like his demonic personality in this song. Shady's like his dark side, his side that's devilish and dark and destructive and does drugs and shit. So it's like Em vs Demon Possessed Shady. I think that was the original concept is that the Shady persona came from some demonic force. On the EP where he intros the Slim Shady persona it's the sound of a mirror breaking. So the mirror talking to him may be another call back. Lyrics from Genius from the intro of Slim Shady EP ""Eminem" "No" "Eminem!" "No" "Hahaha, wake the fuck up, motherfucker" "What do you want from me?" "Hahahaha, remember me?" "I killed you!" "You thought I was dead, didn't you?" "What do you want from me?!" "Ha, I'm alive" "Oh, God" "Haha, get up" "No" "Get up and look in the mirror" "I don't want to!" "Look in the mirror, it's just a reflection" "Leave me alone!" "Haha, look in the mirror!" "Leave me alone!" You're nothing! You're nothing without me! "Leave me alone!" Look in the motherfucking mirror! Hahaha" "Leave me the fuck alone!" [Eminem punches the mirror, breaking it.]

The Devil is his addiction trying to coax him into using again. Bringing up his mothers abuse, "Dr Dre" doubting him, etc. In the 3rd verse Em is slowly cracking under addiction and when the chainsaw starts up he relapses. Fire song!

[@praveshpokharel3336]

No he was not addicted when his mother abused him. The theme is he sold his soul to devil to get rich and fame who created Shady but now Marshall is done with Shady but Devil wants Shady back permanently.

[@rapus.analyses]

This song is about his addictiin. In Relapse it was the second track at the beginin after Dr West skit. But they change it to 3am.

[@notforone]

Relapse was ahead of its time.

[@masoudshairzadeh6820]

The “demon” is slim shady. If you look at the beginning of the slim shady ep. He screams “I thought I killed you!, I’m back, thought I was dead muahahaha”. And this song it says you can’t kill a spirit. So, my prediction is that in the death of slim shady, shady can’t die cuz he’s a spirit.

[@mbuszka5295]

This is one of my favourite songs from Em. Also, I don't know, if only I recognized it, but he literally referenced final FIGHT CLUB scene, that gives new background to whole song. 🤔 Like with Tyler Durden was in FIGHT CLUB suppousedly 'killed' for many by Narrator... Em literally said "You CAN'T kill Your spirit, even if You try to.". Overlooked in FIGHT CLUB, in all Schizophrenia Narrator suffers, 'Tyler' plan worked by end. HE is Tyler. Same in My Darling, while in one song he KILLS 'SHADY' part of him, he, demon inside him, survives. 🤷🏻‍♀️ Love such little things, like him referencing movies, making sounds of chainsaw peaking up till words confirms, he is back on same track, as Devil within Him. 🤷🏻‍♀️ He is same devil, that caused his doom. And in this song he faces and accepts it. ✌️

I've always felt the voice was a representation of Slim, his addiction, and the Devi,l all in one. Especially with the extreme attention to detail on this song/album.

The 3rd verse on this song is insane. It's slim talking to Marshall. Everyone thinks it's the devil but it's not, it's Slim. Slim is his inner demon, Slim got him the record deal, Slim made him famous. But slim is nothing but drug addiction, which is his inner demon.

This song is actually about Drugs. look at the poster (cover art) of of Relapse, it's Eminem made of drug pills Remember, the voice says, "look a little closer, isn't that us in that poster?" But Eminem made it like a double of him selling his soul to the devil, & painting imagery of illuminati... the devil here is drugs If u think about it in that perspective, the entire aong makes perfect sense Remember, the album title & concept is RELAPSE At the end of the song, Eminem & the voice fuse together, showing that Eminem has finally succumbed to the pressure/temptation, i.e. Eminem relapsed back to being a drug addict

One of my favorite songs from this album

[@GhostWatcher2024]

This is my favorite Relapse song... this and "Underground"... the demon is taking over.... There is a skit at the beginning of the Relapse album that is a perfect intro to this song.

this one of those ..... the first time the chorus comes in its dark as fuck , but the second time it comes in it has a WHOLE nother fucking meaning .......its hits SO much harder the second time it comes in

em is not a human he's an alien...😄🔥🔥🔥

[@mikeyturner4832]

I think it's eminem he is talking to . The " demon" refers to him as Marshall and shady .... plus for ever people have said eminem is nothing with out the shady persona.... just my theory that eminem is the evil one all along 😂😂
